The tools will be cleaned on their own using a caustic anti-corrosion solution. A similar tool is made with your own hands, most often literally from what is already on the farm.

Next, we prepare the cleaning solution. For 0.5 liters of water, you need 250 ml of 3% hydrogen peroxide, as well as 50 ml of citric acid. If you need a large volume of water, then the ratio of all ingredients is calculated as the proportion for 1 part water 1/2 part peroxide and 1/10 part citric acid. All this "happiness" is thoroughly mixed in a container, after which problem instruments are put into it.

You just have to wait. After about 1-2 days, most of the rusty plaque will disappear, having precipitated. As soon as this happens, we remove the tools from the container, rinse them thoroughly with warm water, dry and wipe with a sponge.
